Woo hoo! A finished Picovoli
I actually finished this about a week and a half ago, but I've been too sick to feel like posing for a picture. I'm feeling much better now, so here you go!
Project Details:
Pattern: "Picovoli," Magknits.com by Grumperina
Yarn: KnitPicks Shine in Orchid, 5 skeins
Needle Size: Size 4, 24" circular
Skills needed: knit, purl, increase, decrease, casting on additional stitches during knitting (cable cast-on or knitted cast-on)
Pattern Modifications: I knit the top a little longer than called for, and added one additional increase at the waist.
Time to knit: About a month and a half
Final impressions: I'm really happy with the way this project turned out. It fits great and it's very wearable -- I've already used it as a shell underneath a suit for work. I will probably knit it again in another color, maybe as a gift for my sister or mom.

It looks fantastic! I'm definitely going to be knitting another of these as well!
